Two Chinese ladies

It's starting to get on my nerves when people keeps saying that I was the one among the 2 chinese ladies.

Okay, this is how it was started. Last time I was in Gynecology posting, there is one curricular requirement which we students need to accomplish where we were required to go to clinic and observe how a Dr manage a patient who came for a follow-up/illness.

During that time, there were 5-6 consultation rooms but almost all were already occupied with students except of this room of this particular Prof. My friend and I entered his room and he was examining a patient's external genitalia. He said "LOOK AT THIS PATIENT" to us. We only saw there was vulval swelling and the patient quickly dressed up. Then the Prof got a little agitated and said WHY ARE U ALL STANDING THERE?YOU SHOULD TAKE GLOVES AND EXAMINE WHAT'S WRONG WITH HER. I got astonished as what he said previously was just LOOK! Then he starts questioning the patient. We were like furnitures, as what a medical officer told me where Profs treat medical students like furniture, because that was what he experienced.

The Prof is very fast-acting. He only spent about 5 minutes for each patient. He even stopped the patient from talking more when the patient wanted to elaborate more of their illness. After about 6-7 patients, he finished his clinic work and left by asking us to look at patients' case notes. He neither teach us much nor talk to us.

Okay. End of clinic.

Back in Ward. My friend clerked a Chinese patient in ward and the patient said she has her follow-up under that particular Prof.( we all know the Prof). Then she said there were 2 chinese ladies when she had her follow-up with the Prof, those 2 chinese ladies were very badly scolded by the Prof. Then, it starts to spread the 2 chinese ladies were me and my another friend. There were few friends coming up to me and asked whether I was the one who got madly scolded by the Prof. Man, I got so dumbfounded. Come on, the Prof was in rush to finish his clinic work, where to find the time to scold us?! Frankly, I admit I didn't receive such scolding described by them. There are so many possiblities behind this! Either the patient created story or that wasn't actually 2 chinese ladies, perhaps some ladies who look like chinese? Could be possible okay.


I don't like to be assumed, especially I am certain I wasn't the one involved, so
SHUDDUP AND STOP ASSUMING,PEOPLE!
